some more information on this, it looks like at least one message that 
has had the subject modified with the {Disarmed} tag should perhaps have 
been tagged with {Fraud} instead, here are the logs:

Dec 13 16:07:49 mailr-k MailScanner[22140]: Found phishing fraud from 
www.eztrackz.com claiming to be www.visualclick.com in kBDG53jH022296

Dec 13 16:07:49 mailr-k MailScanner[22140]: Content Checks: Detected and 
have disarmed phishing tags in HTML message in kBDG53jH022296 from 
bounce-1514242-44084501 at list.novell.com

This looks like phishing is being lumped in with HTML tags and web bugs 
so that it triggers the Disarm rules rather than the Fraud rules.

I didnt notice this in the changelog.

Also, this doesnt explain the fact that the subject is being modified 
even tho it is configured not to altho it may point the way.
